First Day at St. Matthew's


June 17, 2013

  This morning all of us woke up to pouring down rain, which continued throughout the day. After a good breakfast we went straight to St. Matthew’s where we learned all of the rising eight graders’ names while playing a ton of fun name games! We then left around noon and returned to Monkey Bay for lunch. After a good meal, yet again, we headed back to Saint Matthew’s for some service work and fun science experiments with the kids. The “hazardous weather presentations” that the St. Mathew’s students did for all of us were great – they know so much about science and weather. For service work we picked up trash around the campus, cleaned windows, cleaned tires so plants could be planted in them, and also sanded down a podium for their graduation. We then switched gears to the classroom to experience different weather types through fun experiments. We then said our goodbyes to the whole school and made our final return to Monkey Bay. We took showers, played games, and talked about the communities’ problems. Tonight we are eating dinner and listening to some locals share about how they changed Belize in a way that impacted all! Through all the pouring down rain and bug bites we are having a blast!
